Atypical tuberculous meningitis in a 45-year-old man with low back and radiating pain. (A) Spine magnetic resonance (MR) shows subligamentous spreading pattern of spondylitis with T6–7 endplate erosion and paravertebral abscess formation (arrows), suggestive of tuberculous spondylitis. (B) One month later, the patient became mentally confused. Post-contrast T1-weighted MR images show linear high signal intensities along the pial surface of the infratentorium, including the cerebellar folia and surface of the brainstem. (C) Matching fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images also show subtle abnormal high signal changes along the pial surface of the infratentorial structures.
